    Back in the day, a "day 1" or "day 0" patch would be unheard off. That would be a delayed release date.

    Shipping games out with known issues...only in modern gaming. No wonder I feeling like giving up the hobby or just playing old games.



    Because it shouldn't have been undercooked in the first place.

    Why is the kitchen sending out undercooked food? Why is it sending out food that it KNOWS is undercooked?

    It wouldn't fly in a restaurant if it sent out undercooked food to everyone who came in on Aug 27.

    If I owned that restaurant, I'd fire the kitchen staff. Knowingly sending out undercooked food is just completely wrong on all levels.
    Its the give and take with patches. Its great to have patches to fix things wrong with a game, but it also leads to games being rushed out, poorly tested or unfinished. And dont get me started about purchasing Add-ons to games (Dead Space 3 doesnt have a true ending, unless you purcahse the DLC)

    Plus if you dont have the PS3 connected to the internet (even though I am sure its not a ton of people), the game is broken and cant be fixed.

      So, to those that don't have an internet connection, have fun playing with invisible players! EA is giving you the big middle finger while thanking you for your contribution to their coffers. Inexcuseable...

        I think they are just working so hard at making next-gen amazing. They probably just forgot to check current gen...

          Whats so disturbing is, is that this is supposed to have been an older build of the game!?

          This would go totally against that as it seems this is an issue thats either still bugging them during the development or when people say this is an older build then we know this is exactly what we are getting!

            Sony is just as much to blame for this as EA is guys, they have to pass it through Sony to get it approved first. People who are not getting the game because of this already being fixed make no sense. AJ even confirmed it will be fixed in the Season Ticket version next Friday.

              The demo at community day was newer than this demo according to the guys who were down there. This demo has to be at least 6 weeks old, MS & Sony have to certify it before it goes through.

                The problem is that even the final build they are shipping with this issue. If the demo is that old then it looks even worse that they somehow missed this.

                  I'm glad that it will be fixed for Season Ticket, that would have caused problems. PS3 people with no internet, we'll see how that shakes out, best to get ahead of it and let people know so they can either get the 360 version if possible or make arrangements to get the patch.

                  I don't want to pile on here, but I'm a sucker for irony, we are on the 9th version of this game this gen, but every time I read the title of this thread:

                  "Madden NFL 25 Title Update #1 to Fix Disappearing Players"

                  I just have to laugh, you can't make this stuff up.

                    Like I said though Sony had to have missed it too. It doesn't exist on Xbox and Sony had to pass this demo through certification before they gave EA an approval. Sony could have easily sent it back when they saw disappearing players.

                      Retarted. Though I havent seen the bug myself. But it is worrying they ship the game with a bug like that.
                      I already pre ordered the uni ed for ps3 from amazon
                      But from playing both demos I think the xbox on looks way better
                      Graphics wise

                        Day one patches are the new norm. Not surprised at all by this.

                          I agree with those who say that knowingly releasing the game with vanishing players is unacceptable, mainly because of the people who don't have internet connection.

                              EA still went "okay... we're ready. lets send it to sony." It's just beyond unacceptable.

                                So it was up to Sony to find the glitch? I honestly am curious. Don't know how the QA dept works for Sony....
